Swimming Pool Constant Submersion & Chemical Challenge
Swimming pools and water features face water pressure from both sides: internal hydrostatic pressure when filled, and external groundwater pressure when empty. Constant chemical treatments (chlorine, ozone) degrade standard waterproofing coatings.
Application Selection Guidance
Specify Geobit high-performance, crack-bridging 2K cementitious waterproofing systems or polyurethane-based liquid membranes. The waterproofing barrier must be applied on the concrete shell before laying mosaic tiles. All construction joints, pipe inlets, and lighting niches must be sealed with swellable hydrophilic gaskets and flexible epoxy-polyurethane adhesives.
Reinforced concrete pool shell tested and cured with honeycombs repaired.
Heavy-duty PVC waterstops cast into construction joints and pool wall-slab junctions.
Flexible 2-component polymer-modified cementitious waterproofing slurry resisting positive and negative hydrostatic pressure.
Seamless 100% pure spray polyurea lining for chlorine and chemical resistance.
Alkali-resistant glass fiber mesh embedded in internal corners and wall junctions.
Water-resistant polymer-modified tile adhesive and epoxy grout for pool tiles.
